At this point, it is hardly a surprise to learn that even top scientific journals publish a lot of low-quality work — not just solid experiments that happen, by bad luck, to have yielded conclusions ...

Statistics Machine Room, 1964. Research students Mr Button and Mr Kerner. Photograph taken during the making of a BBC documentary. In light of an estimated replication rate of only 36% out of 100 ...

Researchers have for the first time been able to create an RNA molecule that replicates, diversifies and develops complexity, following Darwinian evolution. This has provided empirical evidence that ...

A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...

Older DNA strands are preferentially sorted into stem cells when they self-renew (A). This segregates the DNA most recently replicated, and therefore most error-prone, into cells destined for ...

I read with interest your article on the White House’s response to the replication crisis in biomedical science. You cite the Center for Open Science’s project, which couldn’t replicate 54% of ...

The development of science left behind various experiments that could have furthered the field in a variety of domains. A recent collaboration between Los Alamos scientists and Duke University ...

Just as the US and UK refused to sign an international statement about AI safety at the AI Action Summit earlier this week, an AI study out of China revealed that AI models have reached a "red line" ...

It has been called “galling” and “worse than we thought.” It risks demolishing the technocratic case for “expertise.” Nearly two decades into science’s replication crisis, have scholars, researchers, ...
